About Tellez K9 Dog Training

Results-Based Dog Training for Real Life

Tellez K9 Dog Training is a professional dog training company serving Durham, Raleigh, Chapel Hill, and surrounding areas of North Carolina.

We believe effective dog training should go beyond teaching a dog a list of commands. The goal is to build clear communication, reliable obedience, confidence, and control that carries over into everyday life.

Our programs are designed around the individual dog and owner, with training tailored to each dog's temperament, behavior, environment, and goals.

Our Training Philosophy

At Tellez K9, we take a practical, balanced approach to dog training.

We believe dogs should be taught what is expected of them and given clear communication throughout the training process. We use a combination of structured training, appropriate rewards, clear boundaries, and accountability to help dogs understand what behaviors are expected.

Rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach, we adjust our training methods based on the individual dog and the situation.

Training for Real Life

A well-trained dog should be able to function outside of a training environment.

That's why our programs focus on helping dogs develop reliable behaviors around the distractions and situations they encounter in everyday life.

Depending on the dog's needs and program, training may include:

  • Basic and advanced obedience

  • Leash manners

  • Impulse control

  • Place and stay

  • Recall

  • Off-leash reliability

  • Neutrality around people and dogs

  • Public-access manners

  • Behavior modification

  • Reactivity management

  • E-collar training

  • Breed-specific training

Our goal is to help owners build a dog they can confidently live with, manage, and enjoy.

Programs Built Around Your Goals

Every dog and owner has different needs.

Some owners simply want better manners around the house. Others need help with reactivity, obedience, off-leash reliability, or more advanced training.

Tellez K9 offers a range of programs so training can be matched to the dog's current level and the owner's goals.

Our services include:

  • Board & Train

  • Dog Obedience

  • Off-Leash Training

  • Behavior Modification

The Owner Is Part of the Training

Training doesn't end when your dog leaves a lesson or completes a program.

We believe owners should understand how to communicate with their dogs and maintain the behaviors they have learned.

That's why our training emphasizes owner education and practical application. Our goal is not only to train your dog, but to give you the knowledge and tools needed to continue that training at home and in everyday situations.

Our Standard

We strive to provide professional, honest, and results-oriented dog training.

That means evaluating each dog individually, setting realistic expectations, communicating clearly with owners, and focusing on training that produces practical results.

Whether you're starting with a puppy or working through more advanced behavioral challenges, our objective remains the same:

Create better communication between dogs and their owners and produce reliable obedience that works in the real world.
